A Raft-Associated Species of Phosphatidylethanolamine Interacts with Cholesterol Comparably to Sphingomyelin. A Langmuir-Blodgett Monolayer Study

BACKGROUND: Specific interactions between sphingomyelin (SM) and cholesterol (Ch) are commonly believed to play a key role in the formation of rafts in the biological membranes. A weakness of this model is the implication that these microdomains are confined to the outer bilayer leaflet. The cytopla...
